On Wednesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “All In,” Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) stated that the Democratic Party “became very intolerant, very judgmental of people who thought differently than us on social and cultural issues and other tough subjects like guns and climate.” And the party should be more centered around economic issues while allowing internal debates “on other social and cultural issues,” but the party has created a lot of litmus tests and become “pretty exclusionary, and is shrinking, not growing.”
Murphy stated, “[W]e became very intolerant, very judgmental of people who thought differently than us on social and cultural issues and other tough subjects like guns and climate. I think we should return to the party we were in the ’70s and ’80s, when we had economics as the tent pole, and then we let people in who thought differently than us on other social and cultural issues, and we fought out those debates inside that tent. That’s a difficult thing for the Democratic Party to do, because we have applied a lot of litmus tests over the years. But those litmus tests have added up to a party that is pretty exclusionary, and is shrinking, not growing.”

Too late, Chris. You let the wackos in, you won’t get them out. Your only option will be to nuke this thing your party has become and start over. The stench of this will linger for years and years.
At least this excuse for why they lost is accurate.
But will they change? Never.
Should have picked the 90’s as his exemplar and the great tech explosion, etc. But really, it’s hard to pick an era where they were successful.
Damn right. They all need a boot in the keister through the goalposts of life. If I’ve got to put up with those SOBs making their Mehican drug cartels and human traffickers millionaires, they can sure as hell put up with my guns and my fossil fuel burner.
There’s a vacuum in the Dem Party.
This clown’s getting face time like he’s a party leader.
This boy is Walz with a bit longer resume.
Keep up the good work!
Listen to your feelings!
Agreed.
To Sen. Murphy: Too late for repentance. Your party is powered by indoctrinated, obsessive, obstinate children. Too late to save it. If Trump carries out most of his plans, and has two or three strong successors, your party and it’s enablers will disappear. So give it up. You are irrelevant.
He actually spoke the truth that time. But even if they change their tune, they have already exposed themselves for who they really are. Power hungry to the point where they are willing to commit any crime to maintain power. Sorry, no thanks. You cannot reform yourselves by just speaking the truth after you have blatantly lied & treated fellow citizens like garbage that you even say out loud they are.
Unless he is a transvestite midget of a rare skin color that is into bizarre sexual, animal, and drug practices, I don’t see how he has any authority to even suggest changes to his party.
On the pecking order of the how the Liberal Elite see their betters, he’s at the bottom.
Someone named “Murphy” is about as White Bread as you can be.
They’ll do what they always do, double-down and lie.
His words sound acceptable. Is he sincere? I don’t know. The track record of liberal Democrats is so poor, that I have to assume that he does not mean a word he says.
You all are still intolerant. You just can’t cheat your way into elected offices at the moment to keep up your intolerance with impunity.
I sure hope so, but I seriously doubt it.
The stories that I've seen even after the election from the MSM are still stories full of hate, division, and condescension.
” I wanna be a boss;
I wanna be a big boss;
I wanna be the biggest that ever bossed the
world around!”
10CC.
Dems’ anthem.....
Achieve me, bitches....
So, when democrats became the party of 'elites', angry black women, criminals, illegals and sexual weirdos it left too many Americans out of the tent? Sounds like an understatemtn to me.
And how did that work out for them last Tuesday? I hope they stay on that very message.
Does Sen. Chris Murphy know that calling half the American people ‘domestic terrorists’ and cult members and ‘Hitler’ etc not only tossed us out of the tent - but made us hate them?
It’s NOT just ‘climate and guns’ it’s sooooo much more.
It’s lawfare - it’s going past our broken homes after natural disasters with their FEMA gestapo... It’s the lies against us ... most of us hate democrat ‘elties’ and the thugs who prop up their power. And we have thosands of reasons for that hate.
“I pray thee, bear my former answer back: Bid them achieve me and then sell my bones. Good God! why should they mock poor fellows thus?”
